	The Ziggy Stardust Companion: Encyclopedia: B
		: Famous British guitarist and one of Mick Ronson's guitar heroes (George Harrison was the other) who appeared on-stage with Bowie at the final Ziggy Stardust concert at Hammersmith Odeon, London on 3 July 1973.
		He duetted with Bowie on the songs "The Jean Genie" and part of The Beatle's "Love me Do" with Bowie singing and playing harmonica on the latter and also played on the song "Round and Round".
		He was unfamiliar with rock and his first comment on learning his new assignment was "What is a David Bowie?"

	Real Love (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"Real Love" is a song originally written and performed as a demo by John Lennon, later re-worked by the three remaining members (Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr) of the Beatles in late 1995.
		Although the song was first recorded in 1977, when Lennon recorded a song entitled "Real Love" with a handheld tape recorder on his piano at home, according to Beatles biographer John T. Marck, "Real Love" may have actually had its origins as part of the Beatles' last British #1, "The Ballad of John and Yoko".
		Although the song was released as single in both the UK and US on March 4, 1996, the first time the song was publicly aired had come on November 20, 1995, when the American television channel, the American Broadcasting Company (ABC) aired the second episode of The Beatles Anthology.

		His Rolling Stone cover subjects include U2, R.E.M., Janet Jackson, Sting, the Rolling Stones, George Harrison, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, Garth Brooks, Jerry Garcia, Whitney Houston, Steve Winwood and Billy Joel.
		He loves to travel, but especially likes to country-count, a prospect that often has his children Ella (12) and Sylvia (8) rolling their eyes as they have, for instance, lunch in Liechtenstein or San Marino or a quick border crossing to Gibraltar.
		He is the author of Wrestling Angels into Song: The Fictions of Ernest J. Gaines and James Alan McPherson, which was published in 1995 by the University of Pennsylvania Press.

	The Jamie Hoover Web Site - Reviews: Jamie Hoo-ever
		His “It’s Only a Northern Song”- a Beatles song written by George Harrison - is so dead-on that it’s almost impossible to tell Hoover from Harrison.
		But far from a cynical exercise, this is a labour of love as Hoover pays homage to the songs that have touched his life.
		Proof of his adaptability and diverse skills, Hoover comfortably handles songs by the Traveling Wilburys ("Handle With Care"), Let's Active ("Horizon"), the Everly Brothers ("Cathy's Clown"), Todd Rundgren ("Izzat Love?") and, of course, the Beatles ("It's Only a Northern Song").

	Amazon.com: Music: Revolver [UK]
		An overlooked and underappreciated aspect of this album is the strength of George Harrison's songs: "Taxman", "Love You To", and "I Want to Tell You".
		But the two songs that cement John's place on this album (and which closed each side of the LP) are "She Said She Said" and "Tomorrow Never Knows".
		There is not a weak song here, lyrically or musically.

	Eric Clapton Album Reviews
		The album’s centerpiece, “Layla” was an impassioned love plea to “friend” George Harrison’s wife (hence the proposed anonymity of the Derek & The Dominos moniker, which fooled nobody) that is one of the most dramatic songs in all of rock.
		Really, that was the whole point of this album, as Eric’s record company wanted to prove to the public that Clapton could still play the guitar hero role after the more song oriented nature of his last two solo albums.
		After a disappointing duet album with B.B. King (2000's Riding With The King) and a forgettable follow up to Pilgrim (2001's Reptile, which is most notable for the appearance of The Impressions on backing vocals), Eric Clapton retrenched and returned to his first and dearest love, the blues.

	`Wonderwall' Film Is a Real Rarity
		Before it was the song, ``Wonderwall'' was the title of the lost 1969 film fantasia that featured George Harrison's equally forgotten psychedelic score.
		They're not exactly the giving type, but the lads of Oasis gave us a great expression when they named the song ``Wonderwall.'' A wonderwall is an elusive prize, an ultimate achievement.
		He begins spying on her through the ``Wonderwall,'' and his fixation becomes a sweet little lesson about love.

		The more captious music fan might point out (amongst other nit-picking) that an album of covers is hardly likely to break any sales records, nor perhaps appeal to Joe Average on the lookout for an impulse purchase during a lunch break foray in their nearest record store.

	One More Beatles Song, or Should They Just Let It Be?
		A Beatles song in the sense that all four group members are heard on it, it is one of three "virtual reunion songs" worked on in 1995 by McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr and producer Jeff Lynne.
		Yoko Ono, who in 1994 chose the song, as well as "Bird" and "Real Love," for the remaining group members to turn into full-fledged Beatles tunes, says she does not oppose having it finished today.
		Another song, "Grow Old With Me," was rejected by the group (rumored to be too poignant to handle), although was later scored with small orchestra by veteran Beatles producer George Martin, at Ono's request, and included on the "John Lennon Anthology."

	Amazon.com: Yellow Submarine: Music: Beatles
		Only A Northern song and It's All Too Much are George Harrison tracks that are severely underrated due to the fact that this is the album they appear on.
		This album consists of two songs previously released on earlier Beatles albums (Yellow Submarine and All You Need Is Love), four previously unreleased songs (All Together Now, Only A Northern Song, Hey Bulldog, and It's All Too Much), and the rest of the songs are unreleased orchestral tracks by George Martin.
		This is everything a rock and roll song should be, and is arguably the band's finest song.

	Tom Petty - The Last DJ
		McCartney, as he had done on his American tour this year, sang "Something," the Harrison composition once described by Frank Sinatra as McCartney and John Lennon's greatest love song.
		Starr, resplendent in an embroidered scarlet velvet jacket, reached back to Harrison's old favorite, Carl Perkins, and sang "Honey Don't." On the Beatles' recording, Starr hollers for the guitar break with a "Rock on, George, one time for Ringo!" This time it was just, "Come on, let's hear you."
		Harrison loved the comedy troupe's rude surrealism and, given that the profoundly spiritual Briton considered physical death a matter of little importance, he would surely have been delighted by his old pals from the "Life of Brian" movie days sticking it to the Grim Reaper.

	Rasputin Music - Rasputin Recommends and Reviews!
		I’ve heard all the songs here dozens of times and I still get chills up my spine every time I listen to “Hyperballad,” “Bachelorette,” or “Hidden Place.” While all the favorites may not have been included, this is still the essence of Björk and serves as the perfect introduction to her musical magic.
		Written over a period of several years prior to his death last November, George had left most of the songs unfinished and asked Lynne to assist in completing his vision.
		The single issue that hasn't stood the test of time is this: Louis Farrakhan -who get's namechecked in more than one song here-- is NO Malcolm X. Not even close.

	Amazon.com: Music: George Harrison [Bonus Tracks] [EXTRA TRACKS] [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED]
		This song was originally written in the late sixties by Harrison, and was a potential candidate for the Beatles' 1968 self-titled "White" album.
		The top-20 single "Blow Away" might be one of Harrison's best contributions to the charts since "Give Me Love", with its uplifting and optimsitic lyrics, combining with adequate dosis of acoustic guitars, slide guitars (already a trademark of his albums) and synthesisers, with great results in a precious nature imagery.
		Having just married his second wife Olivia & witnessing the birth of his son Dhani, George was clearly in a much better mood this time around, and the sunny weather of his island jaunts also helped to bring up his spirits & inspire him creatively.

	Thirty-Three & 1/3 by George Harrison CD
		"Beautiful Girl" (which was actually written in 1969 as a potential Beatles song) is a gorgeous love song that's driven by Harrison's shimmering 12-string electric guitar, while "Dear One" weaves a haunting, Indian-influenced melody with a big pop chorus to create an intensely moving song of devotion.
		"This Song" (George's humerous comment to the "My Sweet Lord" plagiarism trial) was a minor hit single and the highlight of teh album.
		Released in 1976, THIRTY THREE & 1/3 spawned several hit singles, including "This Song" (an upbeat rocker featuring some jaunty organ playing by Billy Preston and a spoken word cameo from Monty Python's Eric Idle) and "Crackerbox Palace," a tuneful, mid-tempo pop song that offers a playful blend of mysticism and humor.

	The Beatles : Yellow Submarine - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		(The rest of the album was filled out with "Yellow Submarine," "All You Need Is Love," and a George Martin score that held little appeal to rock listeners.) What's more, the four new tracks were little more than pleasant throwaways that had been recorded during 1967 and early 1968.
		These aren't all that bad; "All Together Now" is a kiddieish singalong, "Hey Bulldog" has some mild Lennon nastiness, and Harrison's "It's All Too Much" is highlighted by some tidal waves of feedback guitar.
		The only Beatles album that could really be classified as inessential, mostly because it wasn't really a proper album at all, but a soundtrack that only utilized four new Beatles songs.

	Rolling Stone : Yellow Submarine Songtrack : Review
		When the lads realized that they didn't have enough songs for a respectable album side, even after recycling "Yellow Submarine" and "All You Need Is Love," George Harrison wrote "Only a Northern Song" in an hour and the job was done.
		This remixed, remastered soundtrack ditches the orchestral stuff and collects the fifteen midperiod Beatles songs used in the movie.
		"It'll do for the film," was John Lennon's wry summation of every subgenius Beatles session around the time the band was working on the music for Yellow Submarine, a project designed to fulfill a contractual obligation.

	TOPIC: Magical Mystery Tour
		I think it's really disturbing, but I love George Harrison so much that I can't think any of his songs are weird, even Only A Northern Song (does he really say, "Or how I fur"?).
		On the "Magical Mystery Tour" CD, what is your favorite song?
		I think The Fool On The Hill is depressing.

	BeatleLinks Fab Forum - Love Songs Album is cancelled
		Since the Beatles songs like "Michelle", "Yesterday" and "Here, There are Everywhere" are credited to the Beatles (and not just Lennon-McCartney) the group's company, which is owned by McCartney, Ringo Starr and the Estates of John Lennon and George Harrison, would have to unanimously agree on it's addition on any Beatles or non-Beatles release.
		I don't understand the point of view of all the harshness towards the love songs album, and that is what I meant.
		I would probably have bougth this album when it was released, being the die hard fan that I am.

	Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The other source for the album was the pain of Clapton's personal life: he had fallen hopelessly, desperately in love with Pattie Boyd, at that point the wife of his best friend George Harrison.
		Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs is a blues-rock album by Eric Clapton, recording with the group Derek and the Dominos.
		The final version of the song that appears on the album is a combination of these two takes: the frantic pace of the single is slowed down to the laid-back speed of the instrumental.

	Pattie Boyd - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pattie was the inspiration for one of George Harrison's most famous tunes, "Something", one of the few Beatles hits not written by fellow-bandmates John Lennon and Paul McCartney; the song was called "the greatest love song ever written" by Frank Sinatra.
		Pattie went on to divorce Harrison in 1977, and later marry Clapton in 1979.
		Patricia Anne "Pattie" Boyd (born 17 March 1944 in Taunton, Somerset, England), model and photographer, is best known as the wife of two famous rock musicians and the inspiration for several memorable rock love songs.

	... welcome to the three imaginary girls ... Blessed Light * "Love Lights The Way" .. ..*.
		On Blessed Light's Mill Pond debut "Love Lights the Way", classic rock influences such as George Harrison, the Bee Gees, and Eric Clapton seamlessly interfuse with honest passion and incredible songwriting to create a wonderful listening experience.
		Blessed Light's "Love the Lights Way" is an album for people searching to be lost in a love song that calls back to a time when songwriting actually meant something and people still believed that love was all you need.
		The album also features songs deeply rooted in spiritual overtones that stem from Toby's love of early Christian rock, but the religious overtones merely reflect on his love of life and the beautiful elements of experience — they don't seek to preach.

		Sam began to belt out in that voice of incomparable strength a version in a higher key of George (and son) Harrison’s song Horse to the Water, which he recorded with Jools and the gang for their first And Friends album, Small World Big Band.
		Sam left the stage when the amazing number finished, whilst Jools called out for applause for the ‘fabulous George Harrison.’ He mentioned his and Sam’s stint on that stage in tribute to George, but failed to mention that it was now available on DVD, as Jools never seems interested in self-promotion.
		Sam’s amazing voice sang The Kiss of Love, a tantalising track she co-wrote with Jools that celebrates the strength of a long distance love affair, recorded as a duet with the superb Nick Cave on the recent ‘Friends’ album, Jack O The Green.
